Which will be a generally good thing IMO. :) Macan ICE FAR stronger…well over 50%….that’s how I first got into Porsche…the much str...

Re: PCP Finance/Depreciation

Just looked at the finance examples for the new Taycan…shocking…and that’s from someone who actually enjoys the Taycan…no way I can justify going new, even though I can business expense it 3 year deal…not one of the models has a GFV of 50%. The turbo has a GFV of £54k against a pre-optioned car of £...

Re: Just joined the forum - shopping for a Turbo!

However, if you buy privately and the car still has a months warranty for example, you can extend straight away without a 111 point check. So that may be the way forwards. It’s only if the warranty has expired you need to wait 90 days before renewing. Also, the warranty is invalid if you buy from a...

Re: Insurance Premium Plummets!

Maybe an age thing...you're now of an age whereby they think you're less risk, but not old enough to be a danger :D :lol: :P

Re: Used Taycan . List prices.

Just looked at the Porsche used website for used Taycans. Another bit of smoke & mirrors , after the change in cars available changed to 25+, you can no longer get a configurator new price for a Taycan for comparison with the used price. Still available for the Macan though. +The Macan ICE is s...

Well, with 393 mile range, not sure I'd need to stop to charge. Even if it ends up being 300 mile real world, covers 99% of my driving profile

Re: Macan EV Official Launch Date!

Not seeing it quite as a “nightmare” 😂 We have six chargers at work and more EV’s than that and zero problems so far in fairness. I don’t drive an EV but neither will I find any ridiculous excuse to put them down either. 🙄 Indeed not, you're sounding like an EV evangelist these days, the 911 must b...
